Panic at the Disco topped the Alive@Five poll with 968 votes, just 24.2% of 4,004 cast — meaning roughly three in four fans wanted someone else. The runner-up, the O-Town/Nick Cater/98 Degrees bill, trailed by only 140 votes, and six other acts split the remaining half of the field. This was a plurality, not a mandate: the leader held the top spot from day one through day 80 without ever needing to pull away, because nobody built a majority to chase.

The two frontrunners drew genuinely different rooms. Panic at the Disco's voters ran 31% male, while the O-Town/98 Degrees bill pulled just 15% male — its crowd was better than 8-in-10 women. Gary Clark Jr. sat at the opposite extreme, the only option where men outvoted women, at roughly two-to-one.

  • No mandate · Winner took just 24.2% of 4,004 votes — a plurality, not a majority.
  • Gender split · Panic drew 31% male voters; O-Town's crowd was just 15% male.
  • Male outlier · Gary Clark Jr. was the only option men outvoted women on.
  • Locked in early · Same leader held day 1 through day 80 — the race never actually moved.
